on the daily
Here is what has been on the iPod every morning for a few weeks:
Autechre-”Tankakern” from Quaristice (arguably the first banger on the new record, hot shit.)
Autistic Daughters-”Bird In The Curtain” from Uneasy Flowers (I would listen to Martin Braydlmeyer play on ANYTHING at this point).
Earth- title track from The Bee Made Honey In The Lion’s Skull. (That sitar intro KILLS ME).
Eric Copeland-”Green Burrito” from Hermaphrodite. (I really dig songs with lyrics I can’t understand, or songs that are just vocal loops you can’t make out. What he is saying, I don’t know. It sounds like “mohorahyaiyeahhuarashamoehehhuhhuh”)
Fairport Convention “Matty Groves” from Liege and Lief. (Oh sure, it’s a big scary story about wives and husbands and lovers all killing each other, but mainly I’m in this for the knotty-branch sounding guitars and the FRESH drums, as tragic as they are).
Suishou No Fune-all of Prayers For Chibi (I DON’T CARE what they are singing about and I don’t care that one song is a one chord through a delay, I want to live in this weird gauzy world of ghosts forever).
Nico-”Janitor Of Lunacy” (starts about 2:30 in) from Desert Shore. Not much to say besides that.
My current addiction: Mogollar – Toroslar (off Anadolu Pop)
Matty Groves is a walking to work every single morning track for me. so right about the guitar and drums. I sometimes can’t accept that track is almost 40 years old.
